As part of preparations for the local government election scheduled for Saturday, April 27, 2024, Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has declared today as a half working day for all public and civil servants in the state.
A circular signed by the secretary to the state government (SSG), Professor Olanike Adeyemo, stated that government offices were to close by 12 noon on Friday, while personnel covering essential services are expected to remain at their duty posts.
The state government, in the circular, enjoined all public and civil servants to go out and exercise their civic rights on Saturday, April 27, 2024.
Earlier, Makinde had expressed the confidence that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would retain all positions in the Local Government Elections due to the unprecedented achievements of his administration across the state.
The governor, who charged the people of the state to vote en masse for all PDP candidates, said the government at the grassroots will toe the line of his government in delivering sustainable development.
